North East India was closed for most of the outsiders for decades. Only the very adventurous dared to venture into the land of tribes. Discover its many untold folk tales and experience the stunning rural landscape.

India is known to be the land of colours. But the colours of Rajasthan and its royalty stands apart from it all. Explore the folk tales of small hamlets, rustic villages, remains of prehistoric cave dewellers and nomadic tribes of Rajasthan.

Mighty Himalayas are home to many cultures and their folk tales. Kumaon, Lahaul and Spiti valleys are few of the many stunning landscapes of the Himalayas. Spend time travelling slow to absorb the culture that changes after every few miles.

I wanted to travel with 'The Folk Tales' for quite sometime, and finally I made it for the Sikkim trip. The group was small. 10-12 people with equal men and women, and average age was around 35. It was unlike any other group tour. It was quite liberal and included everything that was mentioned in the brochure. I never felt unsafe, instead I made new friends and shared a ride with them till Darjeeling.
